I ordered a hanger machine but sent it back.

After I installed the double bag machine I sell alot more bags then when I only had the ones in the soap vendor.

You don't have to buy a bag machine. Vend Rite will give you one for free with a minimum order. Contact your supplier and ask him about it. I also buy hangers from my supplier that I sell over the counter. They come in boxes of 500.

I think the deal with Vend Rite is if you buy 2 cases of .50 and 2 cases of .75 bags you get the vend machine free if they still have that deal.

I got the same free bag vendor deal - buy 2 cases each 50cent and 75cent and it sells quite a bit more bags than when I had a column in the soap vendor

FYO: if unatended your bag and hanger machines may get crowbared, they are not that secure. At one store I had the bag and hanger machine attacked about 4 times, I finally threw them away. I have 2 other unattended stores with both hanger and bag vendor for years now, no problem. Keep the money empty on them if you install without a cage or guard.

Pete, Sounds like your part of Florida is pretty rough and crow bars are standard issue down there.
